Medicare sets this price locally

77371 has no single national Physician Fee Schedule amount. Use the ZIP, modifier, setting, and participation fields above to match it to a Medicare locality and the contractor amount we have on file.

Your practical estimate will appear here

We hold files from First_coast and Noridian and Novitas across JE and JF and JH and JN, most recently effective Jan 1, 2026. A missing locality means our contractor coverage is incomplete—not that Medicare pays $0.

This is the published amount for this code—not necessarily the entire visit or procedure. A hospital may bill a separate facility charge, and other services, drugs, or supplies can add to the total.

Reconciling a contractor-priced payment for 77371 Copy link

There is no national allowed amount for 77371, so every reconciliation of this line runs against the MAC fee schedule that was in force for the date of service rather than against a national baseline.

What to reconcile

  • Compare the paid amount against the MAC fee schedule in force for the date of service; there is no national allowed amount here to reconcile against.
  • Only a technical-component amount is published for this code, so a professional charge billed on it has no fee-schedule amount behind it.
  • Check for documentation on file before appealing an assistant-at-surgery denial: payment on the -80 or -AS line is restricted for this procedure unless medical necessity is established.
  • Reprice the line against the release, locality, setting, modifier and participation status that applied to the date of service before treating any difference as an underpayment.

Billing policy Copy link

What 77371's billing-policy indicators mean. These show for every code, priced or not: a restriction like "bilateral not allowed" still matters on a carrier-priced code.

Policy Value What it means
Bilateral surgery 0 No bilateral adjustment. The 150% bilateral payment adjustment does not apply to this procedure.
Assistant at surgery 0 Restricted without documentation. Payment for an assistant at surgery is restricted for this procedure unless supporting documentation establishes medical necessity.
Co-surgeons 0 Not permitted. Medicare does not recognize co-surgeons (modifier 62) for this procedure.
Team surgery 0 Not permitted. Medicare does not recognize a surgical team (modifier 66) for this procedure.
Multiple procedures 0 No reduction. No payment reduction applies when this procedure is billed with other procedures on the same date—each is treated as unrelated.
Professional/technical split 3 Technical component only. Only a technical component exists for this code—there is no corresponding professional-component amount to bill.

Common payment questions Copy link

Why would a Medicare claim for 77371 be denied or paid less?

These come from CMS indicators on this page, not general billing advice.

Payer-specific coverage and documentation rules live outside these files, so a claim that clears every check here can still be denied on other grounds.
